Anyone seen this?

It's not a part of history i've looked into with any detail before...

 

 

Also, it seems that with the support and funding received following the above, Nancy Spielberg has secured a feature length film.

Should be worth a watch.

Not seen it, but it IS an interesting story, the birth of the Israeli Air Force.  To include, Israeli Bf-109s (Actually Avia S-199s, but they were, nonetheless, Bf-109s) against Egyptian Spitfires escorting C-47s.  The Israeli Secretary of Defense (I think) was killed in that action.
